Mark,
Frankly speaking, the only thing I donīt need now is the angle of
these trendlines you see in
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amibroker/message/42800
W. Eckhardt dimensional coherency would not help either.
Decision making [for sessions like this] is painful and needs more
serious criteria [and increased risk...]
I never say no to theoretical discussions, if they will lead us to
some result...
